Lamps are usually fitted with bulbs as source of light. Normally bulbs with lower wattage are used with the table lamps but these days bulbs with adjustable wattage are also used which facilitate you to increase or decrease the intensity of light according to your need. A brass lamp may be placed on the side table of your bedroom or on the table of your study room or home library. Almost all the lamps are decorated with bright colored lamp shades to give the room a different and an elegant look. These lamp shades also control the focusing of light.

These piano desk lamps have a solid weighted base that is made to sit securely on any flat surface, making them perfect for upright (vertical) pianos as well as desktops and tabletops around the home and office. The bottom of each lamp is lined with felt so that they will not scratch your piano or desktop. The weighted base of these lamps keeps them from tipping over, unlike many of the other more poorly made lamps on the market, which are feather light and tip over easily.

For those who loved colored glass, Tiffany lamps are a perfect lighting choice. The original Tiffany lamps were designed by Louis Comfort Tiffany and he loved some of the beautiful rich tones that were often used in mosaics in Byzantium. He worked to take these colors and add them to the glass instead of painting the glass. These lamps are actually made from beautiful stained glass that is hand cut. Each piece of the stained glass gets a piece of copper foil wrapped around it, then it is glued together and lead is used to solder the different pieces of glass together. There are often seeds, lines, and bubbles that occur in the glass, which actually add to the natural beauty of this special type of glass used for these lamps.
